As I recall at least in the manga the son when he is in the locker room talked about how he dated her when she wasn't seeing his dad?  

anyways I'm pretty sure he is the son of the guy she called Papa.

As for the tax break I think that might have been in the 80s because you could expense the girl's apartment and otherthings.  Not always that you actually sleep with her as much as she is a status symbol that you can attract younger women while being a powerful man in the world (Instead of it showing that you are a tool like it often proves here).

I did find an article on Geishas though if that would help clear up the biz of how Japan sees things like this.

It's clear she was engaged in enjokosai, whether that lead to sex or not we don't know for sure. If you watch 2nd stage there are brief neon reflections in the Benz window for Love Hotels.

Well thanx for the info, but that link isn't very useful at all. The whole "other language" thing is the whole reason I'm here in the first place.

[DARCnarc]

in a sense, tho i reckon i could've probs made it thru the second one without subtitles, thats just coz im willin to b a lil confused for the sake of awesome drivin
would have to watch it later with sub's tho of course but it would stem my short term needs
